Permits, Applications and Reports

NMFS is not a lien recordation agency and does not perform title or lien searches. As a public service to foster commerce, RAM accepts voluntary assertions of interest against limited access permits. On receipt of a transfer application for a permit that has such an assertion, RAM will make a courtesy notification to the person who asserted the interest. An assertion of interest cannot halt an otherwise approve-able transfer; RAM's notification provides 10 working days in which an Asserter may come forward with an appropriate Court Order or other legal instrument that provides authority for RAM to do so; absent that, the transfer will be processed. Assertions are public information, unverified by RAM, and neither constitute nor imply legally-filed liens. NOAA Fisheries makes no representation about content, accuracy or completeness of interest assertion data.

For permits marked "Interim," CHP endorsements, including the number of Anglers for which a CHP is endorsed, are subject to change with appeals resolution. A CHP marked both Transferable and Interim indicates a CHP that was earned as a transferable CHP, but that is temporarily Interim (and non-transferable) pending outcome of an open appeal.
